If it is possible, gather as many Patriotic Americans that you can and show up!
This is all about the city of Berkeley's actions and words against the Marines.
I will kick in for some clothespins for MAF members’ noses since they’ll be in dangerous proximity to the Code Stinkos.

There has been more fallout in Berkeley, California after the City Council passed a resolution that called our troops "unwelcome intruders" and called upon residents to not cooperate with any military recruiting center in the city.
Anti-military protestors, feeling emboldened by the city's blessing, chained themselves in front of the Marine Recruiting Center and prevented people from entering the facility. The police stood by and did nothing - telling people that they were "trying to remain neutral." See the video for yourself - HERE.
Thousands of you have responded to our call to action and registered your protests with the city via emails, phone calls and petitions.
Now, as Michelle Malkin reports, city council members are indicating that they may rescind the resolution at their next City Council meeting that takes place this Tuesday, February 12, 2008 at 7:00 PM.
Move America Forward has already announced our plans for a giant rally outside the City Council chambers at the February 12th Council Meeting. We need people there by 5:00 PM for the council meeting start time of 7:00 PM.
However, since the news media will likely be camped out throughout the day, we will have staff arriving in the morning, and are asking as many supporters as possible to join us for at least part of the day - so there are bodies there for the cameras. Our first Move America Forward staff members will arrive at 5:00 AM (yes, in the morning) - this is when the early morning news programs begin airing in San Francisco.
The City Council Chambers are located at 2134 Martin Luther King, Jr. Way. It's right by Martin Luther King, Jr. Park. Here is a map of the location.
PROTEST OF BERKELEY CITY COUNCIL
* TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2008
* 2134 MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR. WAY - BERKELEY, CA
* Council Meeting Begins at 7:00 PM
(We are asking people to be there early,
however - if possible, start arriving by 5:00 PM)
** Also... If you can, please join us for our "picketing" of the City Council Chambers. We will be out there at 2134 Martin Luther King, Jr. Way beginning at 5:00 AM for the morning news. We will have a presence all throughout the day - the next newscasts are at 12:00 Noon, so we'll want a good size presence there as well.
Give 'em hell!!
Pinkos like those who slime around Berkeley make me sick.
Why don’t you guys chain yourselves to the doors and don’t let them in. See how they like it.
Petition: Berkeley CA should be federally de-funded

Question: How do you get by those who block your way without getting arrested?
I wonder if the police would “try to remain neutral” then...
The police apparently have been instructed to allow law breaking by those that they support.
It should be investigated on a higher level.
Thomas Jefferson!
“God forbid we should ever be twenty years without such a rebellion.
The people cannot be all, and always, well informed. The part which is
wrong will be discontented, in proportion to the importance of the facts
they misconceive. If they remain quiet under such misconceptions,
it is lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty. ...
And what country can preserve its liberties, if it’s rulers are not
warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of
resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as
to the facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost
in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from
time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
It is its natural manure.”
It’s not the Police’s job to be “neutral.”
Their job is to enforce the law.
In some cities the City Council has control over what the police can and cannot do.
If this is the case here, some other agency needs to investigate.
MAF Protest Tuesday in Berkeley! (Love your idea, chopperman!)

Now e’re talking!
Taking it to the streets!
Money (or the threat of withdrawing it) talks, doesn't it!

Berkeley to rethink its declaration against the Marines
Posted yesterday
They are still liars and need to be brought to account for their un American anti Troop anti Mission stance.
And for not letting cops arrest lawbreaking commies.
Thanks for the laugh!
If I couldn’t laugh now and again, I’d get REALLY depressed.
